Like I said, if you didn't care about being competitive...
No one is going to say being competitive isn't a shit ton of work and/or money. If you care about it and you aren't getting the fulfillment of kicking the asses of 20 car fields, you burn out. The bottom line is if you turn it into a rat rice, whether it be DE or racing... or whether you do your own shit or someone else does... you're going to get sick of it.
Even then, it still has to be about who you do it with rather than the what you're doing.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
